Текст песни They're Tearin' My Little Town Down (Eddie Rabbitt) с переводом

There used to be a place where I would run

Down by the little stream

Where I could dream of things to come

It doesn’t seem like twenty years ago

But there’s eight lanes of concrete

Running over my old back road

They’re tearing my little town down

Stone by stone, ground by ground

Men used to work in that old factory

Now they just stand around

Don’t tear it down

I guess I shouldn’t really be surprised

It’s all in the name of progress

But it seems like suicide

They say you can never go back again

And I feel like I’m saying goodbye

Oh, to my only friend

They’re tearing my little town down

Stone by stone, ground by ground

We turn away so we don’t have to see

But we can’t shut out that sound

Don’t tear it down

There used to be a place where I would go

And except for some old photographs

It’s a place my kids never will know

A cold wind blows across the setting sun

And I worry about the future

When the past is under the gun

They’re tearing my little town down

Stone by stone, ground by ground

And it was here before my father was

He’s buried in this ground

Don’t tear it down
